OK... I've been applying to a ton of different places... there are some that I haven't applied to though b/c of the "Send a copy of your resume AND Salary History to..."
Why do they want my salary history? It's an entry level position.. and I've been making crap for the past couple of years (with the exeption of my internship.. but still) It just really makes me uncomfortable telling strangers what I've been getting paid..
Another situation I have encountered after I applied for a job was the whole demographic-type information. After I submitted my resume, I recieved a prepaid postage card to send in. They basically wanted my race, gender and all that stuff b/c of the company's Affirmative Action things going on. Technically, I'm a double-minority (i'm a female and hispanic) but I don't want to be hired b/c of some stupid affirmative action thing. Hmm.. well that was about a month ago.. I didn't return the card.. and haven't heard from them either..
What is the best way to deal with this?
